Diptyque - Do Son - Shower Oil
Huile de Parfum pour la douche awakens all the senses. Upon contact with water, the shower oil transforms into a silky, lightly foaming emulsion, unfolding new fragrance nuances on the skin. Do Son releases the full intensity of its tuberose notes, which are among the most sensual floral scents in perfumery.
In antiquity, fragrant oils were used not only to perfume the skin but also the hair. The oils helped to preserve the full intensity of the scents and to blend with the incense notes used to treat the fabrics. Later, in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, scented balls, pomanders, and other fragrance diffusers became fashionable, along with finely crafted perfume dispensers. In addition, there was a wealth of ointments and elixirs… Over time, established rituals and exquisite objects developed around all these fragrance-spreading substances.
From its very beginnings, diptyque has drawn inspiration from this perfume history and is now inventing a new ceremony, a new art form of perfumery:
The perfume gestures
Gestures that make the invisible tangible, the intangible graspable. In its exploration of the language of perfume, the house once again takes innovative, sensual paths, expanding its palette with "Perfume Gestures," a combination of varying intensities and surprising textures. L'Ombre dans l'Eau, Do Son, Philosykos, and Eau Rose are presented as balm, gel, oil, and foam, thus developing a fragrance intensity comparable to that of an eau de toilette, lasting for many hours.
The creation of these sensory fragrances is exceptionally complex. No two are alike, as each has its own unique texture, allowing it to unfold individually. The selection of ingredients and their precise dosage draws on all of diptyque's expertise to achieve perfect balance. Substance becomes fragrance, fragrance becomes substance. A unique experience for all the senses, as simple in everyday use as it is sophisticated as a fragrance ritual, its sensuality lingering throughout the day.
